Ballsy Answers to Obnoxious Questions

We all have that well meaning but nosy-ass family member, friend, or co-worker who just can't help getting all up in your beeswax. The next time they ask something totally inappropriate, shut them down with these comebacks.

The season finale of Keeping Up with the Kardashians aired a few days ago, and now that we've fully recovered from seeing Kourtney pull a baby out of her own vadge, we have to bring this up: At Kourtney's baby shower, some woman suffering from a serious case of mind-your-own-effing-business asked Kim when she and Reggie would be getting married. You know — so her life could feel complete. Just like her sisters (neither of whom will be divorced or estranged from a certain creep-o baby daddy this time next year... anyway), Kim kept her cool and replied, "I will get married when the time is right." Kudos, girl. And according to Jacqueline Whitmore, founder of etiquetteexpert.com, her response was right on. "You want to deflect an inappropriate question as much as possible," says Whitmore, "And the best way to do that is to answer without actually answering. Be pleasant but vague." We picked Whitmore's brain for a few more genius responses to out-of-line inquiries:

Q: Do you have a boyfriend yet?

A:

Q: When are you two going to have kids?

A:
